Mail Goodies

Yesterday was a great mail day for me. First my vintage apron from Confessions of an Apron Queen arrived. It's a half apron with a pocket trimmed in red. Last week I ordered three patterns from By Annie and they arrived too. Finally, Simply Libby and I had placed a bet on the Celtics/Lakers series and the Celtics won. Libby sent me a box of California goodies: Chocolate San Diego Pebbles, Strawberry Candy Sticks, a Bareroots pattern complete with everything to make the project, a chicken pincushion she made, and a Mickey Mouse coffee mug with Disney coffee. The coffee was delicious this morning. I'm still nibbling on the chocolates. Thank you, Libby for being a good sport.Kim and I have bet on the Red Sox/Yankees season. Right now the Red Sox are leading the series 2-1. You better pay attention Kim - they play each other over the July 4th. The Sox are looking good. The Yankees are so-so.

Last night I finished my third Hatched and Patched block. I am really enjoying these small blocks. I think I'm going to make the quilt that is in the book with them later this Summer.I actually spent time sewing in my studio today. I managed to cross off a couple items on my pre-vacation to do list. Hooray!

What a nice bunch of things to get in the mail. Your stitcheries look so cute! I can't seem to get into baseball until the playoffs start. Football is my favorite game to watch and keep up with all season. Have a great day...TTFN

your stitchery is very nice...goodies look great...and I am from Nashua NH so Boston is less than 25 mi. away...so I did want the celtics to win. I just am a New Englander that grew up with my brothers rooting for the Boston teams...

About Me

I love to play with the fabric, threads and fibers. I support my habit with a job at national fabric and craft store. Some days I do leave more money at work than I make. I never feel guilty about it. When I'm not working or playing or spending time with my grandson, Mr. E., I love to cook, take care of my home and spoil my DH, the Hotel Man.
